★ Why I Love World Cup Soccer
2006 July 2
I’m not a soccer fan, but I LOVE the World Cup when it comes around. I love the fans, the athleticism and the strategy. I love how the national teams play soccer in the style of their culture – Brazil artistic, creative, flamboyant, with a joyful expression (usually, though this year their coach apparently clamped down…); or Germany – structured, organized, precise.
If you’re not a big fan but want to watch one of the reasons this is thrilling to me, check out this YouTube video, with highlight clips from one of the French athletes (Theirry Henry) and two Brazilians (Ronaldo and Ronaldinho):
